  • Patent number: 11868148
    Abstract: An isolation transformer boost system. The system includes a power supply and an isolation transformer. The isolation transformer includes a primary winding electrically connected to the power supply, a secondary winding, a first voltage tap, and a second voltage tap. Wherein the isolation transformer is configured to, in response to a command from an electronic processor, disconnect a connection from the second voltage tap and establish a second connection from the first voltage tap, wherein the command is based on an electrical characteristic measurement of the power supply exceeding an upper limit threshold for a predetermined period of time.
